An easy to understand presentation of clinical biochemistry practicals for undergraduate students. The book fully covers the syllabus as per the Medical Council of India (MCI) guidelines in 33 chapters divided into 4 sections.

 
  Features
  • Qualitative and quantitative estimations of clinically important biomolecules, like carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, cholesterol, cerebrospinal fluid, and blood and urine constituents are covered. Also included are tests for gastric, pancreatic, liver and renal functions.
  • Principles, procedures and observations are explained in a stepwise approach and description of applied aspects is included to give a clinical orientation to the presentation. Structured viva voce and self-examination questions reinforce and test the learning
  • Adequate coverage is given to recent developments like agarose gel electrophoresis, PAGE and ion exchange chromatography for separation of immunoglobulins.
  • A chapter on applications of physical chemistry in question-answer form explains how to prepare solutions of various normalities and molarities needed for clinical estimations.
  • A chapter on laboratory operations makes the reader aware of the functioning of the central laboratory in hospitals and various types of quality control programmes being implemented in clinical laboratories.
